From 549c8b9283314fb98ee6f6068ad55f1ab38f7c5f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Moonchild Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2020 06:46:12 +0000 Subject: [media] Only include source error details in debugging scenarios. Unless a user is debugging media errors, this detail is unnecessary to report and could include sensitive data which could be abused by third-party requesters. This aligns it with the standard success/error paradigms in normal browsing situations. --- dom/html/HTMLMediaElement.cpp | 14 +++++++++++++- modules/libpref/init/all.js | 8 ++++++++ 2 files changed, 21 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/dom/html/HTMLMediaElement.cpp b/dom/html/HTMLMediaElement.cpp index bc63eab51..4abc202a8 100644 --- a/dom/html/HTMLMediaElement.cpp +++ b/dom/html/HTMLMediaElement.cpp @@ -9,6 +9,7 @@ #include "mozilla/dom/HTMLSourceElement.h" #include "mozilla/dom/ElementInlines.h" #include "mozilla/dom/Promise.h" +#include "mozilla/Preferences.h" #include "mozilla/ArrayUtils.h" #include "mozilla/MathAlgorithms.h" #include "mozilla/AsyncEventDispatcher.h" @@ -1245,7 +1246,18 @@ void HTMLMediaElement::NoSupportedMediaSourceError(const nsACString& aErrorDetai if (mDecoder) { ShutdownDecoder(); } - mErrorSink->SetError(MEDIA_ERR_SRC_NOT_SUPPORTED, aErrorDetails); + + // aErrorDetails can include sensitive details like MimeType or HTTP Status + // Code.
